Â鶹´«Ã½

Â鶹´«Ã½ collects student feedback regarding their academic experience through Student Evaluation of Teaching (SET) surveys available at the end of most AU courses.

Explorance Blue hosts AU's SET activities, such as updating the timing of SET surveys and completing the survey. SETs are administered by the Office of Institutional Research and Assessment and managed by Kristi Gibson, Student Evaluation of Teaching Coordinator.

Student Evaluation of Teaching provides valuable insight into the student experience with AU courses and instructors. Instructors use SET data to adjust their instruction or course where appropriate. Administrators use SET data to review student feedback regarding faculty, departments, and programs, and students use SET reports and other relevant information to make course registration decisions.

For information about SET result confidenitality, SET questions, course section exemptions, SET schedules, and other topics, access the resource pages available from the links below.
